Why Early Access?

“DrainSim already features its complete core gameplay loop and water simulation systems. Early Access allows me to continue expanding and refining the experience while gathering player feedback.

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The current development target is around 12 months. This timeframe may adjust depending on progress and how the scope evolves during development.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is intended to represent a more expanded and polished experience. As development continues, the game’s scope may grow in terms of environments, tool variety, systemic depth, and overall presentation.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“DrainSim includes the complete core gameplay systems, water physics simulation, multiple playable levels, and a range of functional tools. The game is fully playable and already represents the intended foundation of the overall experience.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?
